Pet's info: Cat | Mixed Breed | Male | neutered | 2 years and 7 months old
My cat just had urine stones removed, he's leaking/dripping urine time to time, still using toilet eating and drinking. He's using painkillers and antibiotics after the surgery witch was 3 days ago. Is that leak something to worry about or is it just a part of recovery? Thank you

Thank you for submitting your question regarding Louis. The leaking of urine should resolve with time and is typically the result of residual inflammation within his urinary tract. It is a good sign that he is eating, drinking and acting normally. However, I recommend contacting his veterinarian tomorrow to alert them of the problem. I hope this information helps!

Owen had a pretty big surgery, and it will take him some time to come back to normal completely. It's a good sign that he's urinating, eating, and drinking. Continue to keep a close eye on him, and if he doesn't appear to be improving in another 48 hours, have him seen by the vet again. If he starts having trouble urinating, his urine becomes bloody again, or he stops eating or drinking, rush him into an ER vet immediately. Best of luck.
